In the aftermath of Express FC’s humiliating 7-0 defeat at the hands of Kitara FC, assistant coach Mike Sulaiman Mutyaba has tendered his resignation, effective immediately.

Mutyaba, who declined to elaborate on the specific reasons behind his departure, alluded to deep-seated issues within the club.

“I am unable to continue in this capacity due to the prevailing circumstances at the club,” Mutyaba remarked.

 “The internal dynamics have created an untenable work environment, which I can only describe as a circus.” Mutyaba says to our reporter.

Kitara FC secured the biggest win of the 2024/25 season with a resounding 7-0 victory over Express FC at the Royals Park in Butema yesterday.

This defeat marked the heaviest loss in Express FC’s league history, surpassing their 6-1 loss to Police in the 2019/20 season.

Striker George Senkaaba led the charge with a hat-trick, while Jude Ssemugabi scored a brace.

Fred Amaku and David Ndihabwe also found the back of the net, contributing to the historic win.

This victory marks Kitara’s third consecutive win, having previously defeated Maroons 4-0 and Mbale Heroes 6-0. They have now scored 17 goals in their last three games.

The win propelled Kitara to 9th place on 17 points, level with Police, UPDF FC, and SC Villa. They will face Wakiso Giants and host SC Villa in their final first-round games when the league resumes next month.
